If cooking foods from the BURST Cooking Chart (fresh meats poultry or fish), press the BURST button. The BURST temperature of 525 will flash in the display. If not proceed to step 4. Note: If the temperature reaches the displayed temperature before 5 minutes, the temperature display will stop flashing and the timer will continue to count down to 0 before beeping. At the end of the preheat time the Timer Display will show “on” as a reminder that the power is still on. 4. Slide the grease catching Drip Tray under the front of the unit. 5. Use a pot holder to carefully open the lid and place the items to be cooked on the bottom grilling plate. 6 Note: If cooking with the BURST button, to receive the maximum benefit the food must be placed on the grill right away as the thermostat will automatically adjust to the preset temperature after 90 seconds. We do not recommend using the BURST button any other time during the cooking process. 6. Close the Lid and press the timer buttons to set the desired cooking time. The “+” button will increase the cooking time in 1 minute increments up to 20 minutes and the “-” button will decrease the cooking time by 1 minute increments. The Timer Display will show the selected time. 7. Allow the food to cook for the desired time. During grilling, the Timer Display will begin counting down. When the set time has elapsed, the unit will beep 4 times. Check the food and continue cooking if necessary. Note: The unit will continue to heat until the appliance is turned off. If the unit is not turned off, it will automatically shut off after one hour. Do not leave the appliance unattended. 8. Turn the Temperature Control Knob to the OFF position to turn the appliance off. The Time and Temperature Displays will show dashes. Disconnect the plug from the wall outlet. CAUTION: To avoid any sparks at the outlet while disconnecting plug, make sure the power is off (Timer and Temperature Displays show dashes) before disconnecting the plug from the outlet. 9. Use a pot holder to carefully open the lid. 10. When cool, the Drip Tray may be removed and emptied. Be sure the liquid has cooled before removing Drip Tray. 7 Burst Cooking Chart The following times are meant to be used as guidelines only. The times reflect a full grill of food and pressing the BURST button at the beginning of the preheat time. Times may vary due to the cut or thickness of the meat being cooked. To be sure that the food is done, use a cooking thermometer. If the food does need more time to cook, reset the timer and check periodically so you do not over cook.
